inetutils-1.6-2 in [core]

2009-01-19 - Eric Bélanger

To replace several orphaned netkit packages that were unmaintained
upstream, we just added inetutils-1.6-2 in the [core] repo. This new
package will provide the following network clients/daemons:
ftp/ftpd
rexec/rexecd
rlogin/rlogind
rsh/rshd
talk/talkd
telnet/telnetd
rcp.

It will be replacing the following packages:
core/netkit-telnet
extra/netkit-ftp
extra/netkit-rsh

On a related note, netkit-tftp will be remove from the repo in favor
of tftp-hpa. The inetutils tools can also profide a tftp
client/server. It's currently not included in the inetutils package but
we could provide them in a separate package if there is sufficient
demand for it. Please update your settings/configs accordingly.
